i tried to find out where my files were but none of the ones that I downloaded were there, in fact, nothing was there. I got everything nsync but I still cannot find my files.

Are you sure that your library points to the directory where the files are?

Hello!

To check where your downloads go do the following:

In LimeWire go to

Tools>Option>Saving and also Sharing

Here you can check the path to where your files got saved and also where the shared directory is.On Windows the standard path is
C:\Program Files\LimeWire\Shared
On a Mac
Macintosh HD>Applications(Mac OS9)>LimeWire>Shared

If you are a good Gnutella citizen the saving and the shared directory should be the same so that you share every file that you have downloaded of the network and you should ofcourse not move any files out of the Shared directory.If your Saving Directory has changed to some place else on your hard drive it is adviceable that you change it to the Standard LimeWire Shared directory.But you do not have to compromise you can share several shared directory's(folders) just click the add button and add a new directory.
